The easiest way to grant a third-party access to the files in a certain folder is to set up an FTP account and to put content access limits concerning your web hosting space. In case you use the services of a web developer, for example, they will not have access to any other content or any sensitive data within your hosting account. You can also set up separate FTP accounts to manage different Internet sites created with a desktop web design app like Dreamweaver or FrontPage – each Internet site can be published online and subsequently updated using an FTP account that has access to its own site folder on the server. All these things will be possible on the condition that you’re able to create and administer your FTP accounts without any effort.
FTP Manager in Cloud Website Hosting
All our cloud website hosting plans include a multifunctional, yet easy-to-work-with FTP Manager, which will permit you to manage all the FTP accounts that you’ve created without effort. The software tool is a part of our innovative Hepsia Control Panel and apart from setting up and deleting FTP accounts, you’ll be able to modify the password associated with any active account with just 2 mouse clicks. You can change the access level for any specific account just as easily – you’ll only need to click on the access path associated with the account in question and then to pick the new folder. In addition, you can download an auto-configuration file for a number of FTP client programs and configure any of the FTP accounts on your personal computer by simply installing the given file. For simpler and better control, you can arrange the accounts alphabetically based on their access paths or their usernames.
FTP Manager in Semi-dedicated Servers
Our semi-dedicated server configurations are administered via the intuitive, in-house developed Hepsia Control Panel. One of its sections, the FTP Manager, is dedicated to administering your FTP accounts and anything related to them, so you’ll be able to manage all the accounts quickly and seamlessly. It’ll take one single click to set up a brand-new FTP account, to remove an existing one or simply to edit its password. You can also see the complete list of all your accounts in this section of the Control Panel and, for the sake of convenience, you can arrange them in alphabetical order – descending or ascending, either by username or by their access path. Modifying the path for a particular account is also easy – you will simply need to click on it and choose the new directory in the pop-up that will show up, so you will not need to create a brand-new account if you simply need to specify what web files an existing account can access. You can also take advantage of auto-configuration files for widespread FTP clients like Core FTP and FileZilla.
